Took the Coolpix out for a trial run.. I set ISO to 400 on the program
mode and bracketed but don't really need the bracketing .. I can fix
that later if needed.
Went back and forth between the default auto settings an my program
settings.. didn't get much to like but this one..

one other "shooting from the hip" shot , a block from home....
I'm so relieved the camera works and is light enough for me to carry.
and with having gotten nicely vaxed up and things more accesable
now I can do some real shooting.. I wish my K-5 were not so heavy.

Glad to see the camera is working for you. Ann!
That tulip photo is a fine image, with pleasing colors, and the other shot
shows what the camera can do as far as street photography. Good work.

Ann, I really like the tulips shot.
Glad you got the Coolpix working.
DSLRs are, indeed, heavy. I’m usually not carrying extra lenses lately, and occasionally just a prime (the 21 pancake is my favorite).

Thanks , RIck - and Paul and Dan..
The second shot is just a bit of history to those who know what is
going on there... the building in the background is what has been going
up in place of those that were lost in the spring of 2015 when an
illegal gas pipeline exploded and caused a big fire.. big enough for it
to have made national news - two guys died in it and were originally
suspects.. the foreground, of course, is one of the inside-outside
dining arrangements that was built in response to the pandemic... but it
showed me what the camera does well.. handling the details in the
shadows without blowing out the highlights..
I look forward to doing more photography now that isn't just for ebay -
combined with chores and exercise...

Well done Ann. The no-frills construction of the makeshift "restaurant" is
so like the shacks in which the masses live in SA. With mostly no
electricity they unfortunately become terrible fire hazards.

Nice! I hope you keep the camera and show us more pics in the future.

Thanks Toine, Larry, Alan!
Toine - I am definitely keeping the camera.. need to do some fine tuning
on my user programmed auto-mode ..
and get up on all the bells and whistles..
Alan - the major problem here with the dining sheds is that there have
been too many accidents of them being taken out by speeding drivers
in addition to their frailness in weather -- which can be more severe
here than one might think in the city..

Good to hear. I recently got the P950 which is more or less an
upgraded version of the 520. Have fun with the extreme zoom!
